Join the Ingham and Halifax State Emergency Service (SES) and help Queensland communities before, during, and after emergencies. With over 5,000 volunteers across the state, the SES plays a crucial role in disaster response, and we need individuals like you to step up and support our efforts.
As an SES volunteer, you’ll respond to various emergencies, including storms, floods, cyclones, rescues, road/rail/air incidents, landslides, and missing person searches. Your skills will directly impact local, state, and national disaster management, helping protect lives, property, and the environment.
Volunteers come from all backgrounds and bring unique skills. Whether you’re quick-thinking, physically fit, or passionate about helping others, there’s a role for you. Volunteers develop emergency skills like flood boat operations, road crash rescue, land search, and more. We also provide ongoing training in first aid, map reading, and emergency operations.
To join, you must be 16 or older, committed to serving your community, and able to activate during emergencies. Volunteers over 18 will undergo a criminal history check and need to apply for a Blue Card to ensure the safety of vulnerable individuals.
